We're from Austin, y'all. And here, the royal food court is presided over by breakfast tacos, barbecue, and most importantly ... queso. This heavenly appetizer doesn't need to be an indulgent cheat snack– this easy Keto queso is super simple to make, tastes fantastic, AND when you use our Original Creamer, it offers all of the functional benefits of grass-fed butter, grass-fed whey protein, and MCT oil.
The addition of sautéed onion and red pepper in this recipe makes the queso thick and hearty. Pair it with some grain-free chips or raw veggies for an epic appetizer the whole room will rave about, or use it as a topping on your favorite taco salad or protein of your choice. There's no wrong way to eat some queso.
